The Isuzu D-Max Go2 is a one-off off-roader

Isuzu has built the Go2 to demonstrate how its D-Max can be modified using aftermarket parts. Based on a pre-registered Utah model, the result is a pick-up that should be able to tackle some extreme trails.

At the front, a huge ARB Sahara bar covers the original bumper and provides a mounting point for a Britpart winch. Also fitted are a full under-body protection kit and chassis-mounted heavy-duty side steps.

A Pedders TrakRyder eXtreme raised suspension set-up comprises front coilovers and rear leaf springs, as well as adjustable dampers. Furthermore, front axle articulation will be better thanks to a TrakRyder upper wishbone, while the rear benefits from a Pedders anti-roll bar.

To help maximise traction, 16” wheels shod with 33” General Grabber X3 Mud Terrain tyres replace the usual 18” rims. A lockable rear differential is another addition.

The brakes have received attention, too. Pedder ventilated discs with part-ceramic pads at the front are complemented by discs at the rear (although the handbrake still requires separate drums).

A Lazer light bar on the roof, a Safari snorkel, aluminium drawers in the cargo bed and a Mountain Top retractable load cover complete the transformation. For extra practicality, there are heavy-duty seat covers and rubber floor trays in the cab.

Saab 9-3 Aero Carlsson

Image
Saab has got experience of producing special editions in honour of rally driver Erik Carlsson, having previously named versions of the 900 and 9000 after him during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Now it has decided to do it again, this time to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the Swedish driver’s first win in Britain’s RAC Rally, which was achieved at the wheel of a Saab 96. Thankfully, the company has resisted the urge to just bung some fancy alloys and a few other extra bits onto something like a mid-range diesel model. Instead, it appears to have resurrected the limited edition Turbo X from a couple of years ago, as the new edition similarly features a turbocharged 2.8 litre petrol V6, Saab’s XWD all-wheel drive system and a six-speed automatic gearbox. The result is the 9-3 Aero Carlsson saloon, which turns out to be a very rapid car. With 276 bhp (205 kW / 280 PS) and a healthy 400 Nm of torque, the 0-60 mph (96 km/h) dash takes just 6.9 seconds. But it’s in the mid-range t...

American spec Fiat 500

Image
Fiat has released the first details and images of the North American specification 500. The tiny city car will be available in Pop, Lounge and Sport trim levels, and is distinguished from the European version by its more aggressive front and rear bumpers, bigger grille and flared sills. Another unique feature is the engine. Fiat has decided to use the 1.4 MultiAir unit currently found in models such as the Fiat Punto Evo and Alfa Romeo MiTo. Perhaps it felt that using the forthcoming two-cylinder TwinAir in the American 500 would have been too much for markets there to take? There’s no word yet on what power output the MultiAir will have, although in its current applications it comes with either 103 bhp (77 kW / 105 PS), 133 bhp (99 kW / 135 PS) or 167 bhp (125 kW / 170 PS). Similarly, prices have yet to be confirmed, but hopefully both details will have been sorted out by the time the order book for the 500 hatch opens later this year. For convertible fans, the 500C is due ...
